Prank a Plonker or Two

With April Fools Day coming up very soon, 4 more sleepies!  I have a few ideas for you Plonkers to try on your family, friends or colleagues.  Oh I do love a good prank.

Do you have a ceiling fan with an overhead light that your victim turns on using a pull cord? Trick them by substituting a fake pull cord attached to a cup of confetti balanced on top of the fan blade. Most fan cords detach which will make this easy to set up, otherwise use a substitute cord and tuck the real cord out of sight. They will pull the cord and get a big surprise! Booyakasha

This one I'm actually going to try.  I've set it up just waiting for the nail polish to dry and find a unsuspecting victim.  *evil chuckle*.  Find a bottle of nail polish that you don't mind emptying out, get a piece of wax paper and drip the nail polish out.  Wait for it to dry and peel the wax paper off and voila.  Time to set it up for your victim to be pissed off you ruined her new coffee table or desk.

Replace the hand lotion in your victim's lotion bottle with mayonnaise.

Get a long spool of ribbon. Tie one end to your victims doorknob with a little note that says "Follow the Ribbon." Then wind the ribbon all around their room, bed, desk, even all over the house. At the end of the ribbon, attach a note that says "April Fools!"

Offer to make a sandwich for the victim. But don't remove the wrapper from the slice of cheese. When they bite down they'll get a chewy surprise.

This one is fucking tops if you have computer users in the office!

Use Windows Task Scheduler to send your victim mysterious messages. Many people aren't even aware of this program so they won't know where the messages are coming from or how to turn them off. To set them up on Windows 7: Go to Start; All Programs; Accessories; System Tools; Task Scheduler. When the program pops up, click on "Create Task" and in the "General" tab, give the task a name and description. Then click the "Triggers" tab, click "New," and select how often you want your message to pop up (I recommend every 5 minutes), and when you want the task to start and end. Lastly, click the "Actions" tab, click "New," and choose "Display a message." Type your message in the box below. You could simply put "April Fools!" or write "Ha Ha, you're a Fucknob!", or whatever you prefer to do. Click OK. At the specified times, your messages will pop up. NOTE: To reverse your prank, click the task name box for the message you created. To delete it, double-click on it and then look on the right hand side of the screen for "delete." It may not disappear unless you refresh it.
Now go and plan some priceless pranks on your favourite Plonkers and let me know how it goes.

Freaky Friday - Episode 10 - Pranks

Theme : Pranksters


Did you know there is an "art" to pranking?  I said, pranking, not spanking... aka Prankonomy.


"There's a sucker born every minute."

"Take or be taken."

"Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see."

These aphorisms are so ingrained in our life, they're practically commandments. And for good reason: We are a credulous people.  A hoax, we are taught, is an invasive, aggressive stratagem - a nefarious short-circuiting of our natural social instincts, a hack of Trust itself, a deterministic, zero-sum shell game with a clear winner (the prankster) and loser (the gull).




















Ways to Annoy People in the Office:

• Every time someone asks you to do something, ask them if they want fries with that. 
• Email your boss the message: I know what you did last vacation. 
• Page yourself over the intercom. (Don't disguise your voice.) 

And who could forget JackAss?


Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Wee Man and his crowd of weirdos...


This is my favourite clip from Jackass movie.
